About Newlands Cricket Ground

Newlands Cricket Ground is the historic cricket stadium in Newlands, the wet, green corner of the Southern Suburbs under the eastern buttress of Table Mountain. Oaks planted more than a century ago line Dean Street, Palmboom Road and Newlands Avenue, and the suburb collects well over a metre of rain a year — which is why the ground and its outfield have long been among the lushest in the country. Cricket people come for match days at the stadium, and hikers come for Newlands Forest, whose contour path, aqueduct, Newlands Ravine and Skeleton Gorge start a five-minute drive up the M3. Kirstenbosch is ten minutes up Rhodes Drive, and the Constantia wine farms are fifteen. It is residential to its bones: Main Road has traffic and a filling station and very little else at 9pm, Dean Street is dark, and the loudest sound on Palmboom is a Cape robin. Rondebosch and Claremont supply the supermarkets, cinemas and pharmacies the suburb itself refuses to build.

Tips for staying near Newlands Cricket Ground

  • Match days at Newlands Cricket Ground fill the surrounding streets early. If you are staying at one of the guesthouses within a 6-minute walk, head over on foot well before the start and leave the car where it is.
  • Newlands is the wet corner of the Southern Suburbs and collects well over a metre of rain a year, so pack for showers even when the City Bowl looks dry — the outfield is green for a reason.
  • The suburb goes quiet early: at 9pm Main Road has traffic and a filling station and very little else. Plan dinner in Rondebosch or Claremont, or settle in at Forries on Newlands Avenue.
  • Hikers based here should build a morning around Newlands Forest, a five-minute drive up the M3, with the contour path, aqueduct, Newlands Ravine and Skeleton Gorge; Kirstenbosch is ten minutes up Rhodes Drive.
  • Families and groups should book the apartments and family-room properties in the 400-450 m band early — Newlands Peak Apartments, Newlands Peak 823 and the Newlands Peak units are the closest self-catering options to the ground.
